The goal is to remain the King of the hill. You become King of the hill by rolling higher on a d100 than the current King. There are a couple of rules and twists to make the game less stale and boring at higher rolls:
In the event of a tie, the challenger wins
The numbers 7 and 77 always win as a challenger, but always loses as a king
The numbers from and including 90 to and including 99 always loses to prime numbers. The exception is 97 (which is a prime number). 97 loses to any multiple of 5. These number also lose to any number lower than 10
The numbers from and including 80 to and including 89 always loses to numbers ending in the same digit as themselves. 7 and 77 is excluded from this rule. Examples: 83 loses to 3, 13, 23, 33, etc. and 86 loses to 6, 26, 36, etc.
When challenging a King with the number 50, flip a coin. Heads, you win; Tails you lose.
A 1 is a critical failure so bad it affects the current King. The King wins the challenge, but the challenger gets to roll a new number the King must now use.
A 100 is a critical success. You automatically win, but must roll a new number to use as the King. If you roll another 100 your roll automatically becomes a 60.
Critical rolls and the rule of tie supersedes the other rules. If you are dethroned you must wait for at least 3 people to challenge new King(s) before you can challenge the current one again.
Obviously this game has a lot of room for cheating and lies, but hopefully you guys can play nice.
The numbers from and including 90 to and including 99 always loses to prime numbers. The exception is 97 (which is a prime number). 97 loses to any multiple of 5.
I am still the king!

Rules update: The rule to wait for 3 people has been reduced to a wait for 2 people to attempt before you can try again.

Oops, I didn’t read the 3 people must roll before you can roll again rule. I lost anyway.
Oh I did the same, but until more people get active I don't mind the oversight. Unless you demand your throne back, of course. New King says NAY!

I'm already seeing it's going to be a good idea to mention the King's value in your post. Maybe even the name?
So:
Current King:
Mat_Yuren - 86
(also I beat a mod, dare any challenger really take me on?)

Jumping back in here real quick, feel free to challenge more often as long as there are few players.
With that being said,
